Searching South African family- Port Elizabeth.
I am looking for anyone who may have known William Robert born Hackney 1911 or more importantly the family he stayed with in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. Williams parents died when he was 13 and sent (1924) to an Aunt in Port Elizabeth to be cared for and schooled. He then became an apprentice as a Lithographic draftsman at the Herald News Paper ( or Capetown Herald) and returned to England about 1932-1934. Any information however small would be much appreciated.
Regards Derrick Robert.
